Devs do realize we are expecting sailing from Dawntrail?

Who is "we"? Sailing didn't even cross my mind as an option, and I can't say I'm enthused about the prospect now you raise it.

The last RPG I played with sailing as a battle mechanic rather than pure transport was Skies of Arcadia, and I recall it being awful.

Assassin's Creed Black Flag was decent for a game where it was tacked on for like...that and 1 other game. I've not done Sea of Thieves so I can't say anything about that.
